Cele Goldsmith, who married and took the name Cele Lalli, edited, as noted below, the magazines Fantastic and Amazing from 1959-1965 (having served as Assistant Editor since 1955, briefly with Howard Browne and then with Paul Fairman), until Ziff-Davis sold the titles to Sol Cohen's Ultimate Publications, at which time she moved over to the staff of ZD's Modern Bride, the latter half of her 33-year career there as editor-in-chief. In the wedding-consultancy industry there is a notable memorial award in her honor.Barry Malzberg edited Fantastic and Amazing in 1968, after a short and much better-paid term at Escapade magazine; the new publisher had rid himself of the then-current Escapade staff, and the ridiculous lack of resources at Ultimate led in notable part to Malzberg's resignation, as it had for Harry Harrison before him; Ted White, who followed, was capable of getting by on the modest (to put it very kindly) stipend editing for Ultimate offered.
George Zebrowski originally commissioned this interview, as he notes below, while on staff at a later Amazing, during its game-company years.
Reprinted from Synergy SF: New Science Fiction, edited by George Zebrowski (Five Star, 2004), with the kind permission of Zebrowski, who wrote the italicized prefatory note, and Barry Malzberg, with further thanks to Pamela Sargent for her assistance.
